WITNESSETH
WHEREAS, Husband and Wife were lawfully married on August 31, 1996 at Camp Hill,
Cumberland County, Pennsylvania; and
WHEREAS, Husband and Wife have been living separated and apart since on or about July
2006; and
WHEREAS, Husband filed a Complaint for Divorce on June 18, 2007 in the Court of
Common Pleas of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, Docket Number 2007-3543.
WHEREAS, Certain differences have arisen between the parties as a result of which they
have separated and now live separate and apart from one another, and are desirous of settling fully
and finally their respective financial and property rights and obligations as between each other,
including, without limitation by specification: the settling of all matters between them relating to
the past, present and future support and/or maintenance of Wife by Husband or of Husband by
Wife; and in general the settling of any and all claims and possible claims by one against the other
or against their respective estates for equitable distribution of all marital property; and a resolution
of all mutual responsibilities and rights growing out of the marriage relationship; and
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals and the following covenants
and promises mutually made and mutually to be kept, the parties heretofore, intending to be legally
bound and to legally bind their heirs, successors and assigns thereby, covenant, promise and agree
as follows:

Wife has chosen not to be represented by counsel, Wife has knowingly and voluntarily, without
persuasion, influence, or coercion by Husband, waived the right to do so with respect to the
advisability of entering into this agreement, and elects to enter into the agreement and be legally
bound by its terms. It is further acknowledged by the unrepresented party that she has not relied on
any representations made by counsel for Husband.
2. SEPARATION: It shall be lawful for each party at all times hereafter to live
separate and apart from the other at such place or places as he or she may from time to time

apart from the other in all respects as if he or she were single and unmarried.
4. WARRANTY OF DISCLOSURE: The parties warrant and represent that they
have made a full disclosure of all assets and their valuation prior to the execution of this

Agreement between the parties is based upon this disclosure.
5. AGREEMENT NOT A BAR TO DIVORCE PROCEEDINGS: This
Agreement shall not be considered to affect or bar the right of Wife or Husband to a limited or
absolute divorce on lawful grounds if such grounds now exist or shall hereafter exist or to such
defense as may be available to either party. This Agreement is not intended to condone and shall
not be deemed to be a condonation on the part of either party hereto of any act or acts on the part
of the other party which have occasioned the disputes or unhappy differences which have
occurred prior to or which may occur subsequent to the date hereof. The parties intend to secure
a mutual consent, no-fault divorce pursuant to the terms of Section 3301(c) or (d) of the Divorce

Agreement shall be defined as the date upon which it is executed by the parties if they have each

economic or otherwise, whether arising out of the marital relationship or otherwise, including all
rights and benefits under the Pennsylvania Divorce Code of 1980, its supplements and
amendments, as well as under any other law of any other jurisdiction, except and only except all
rights, agreements and obligations of whatsoever nature arising or which may arise under this
Agreement or for the breach of any provision thereof. Neither party shall have any obligation to
the other not expressly set forth herein.
Except for any cause of action for Divorce which either Party may have or claim to have,
and except for the obligations of the Parties contained in this Agreement and such rights as are
expressly reserved herein, each Party gives to the other by the execution of this Agreement an
absolute and unconditional release and discharge from all causes of action, claims, rights or
demands whatsoever, in law or in equity, which either Party ever had or now has against the
other.
23. RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS: Except as otherwise provided herein, each party
hereby absolutely and unconditionally releases and forever discharges the other and his or her
heirs, executors, administrators or assigns, property and estate from any and all rights, claims,
demands or obligations arising out of or by virtue of the marital relationship of the Parties or
9
otherwise, whether now existing or hereafter arising. The above release shall be effective
regardless of whether such claims arise out of any former or future acts, contracts, engagements
or liabilities or the other or by way of dower, courtesy, widow's rights, family exemption or
similar allowance, or under the intestate laws, or the right to take against the spouse's will, or the
right to treat a lifetime conveyance by the other as testamentary, or all other rights of a surviving
spouse to participate in a deceased spouse's estate, whether arising under the laws of
Pennsylvania, any state, commonwealth or territory or the United States, or any other country. It
is expressly understood, however, that neither the provisions of this release nor the subsequent
entry of a Divorce Decree are intended to defeat the right of either Party to receive any insurance
proceeds at the death of the other of which she or he is the named beneficiary (whether the
beneficiary designation was made prior or subsequent to execution hereof), nor to defeat the right
of either Party to receive any legacy, bequest or residuary portion of the other's estate under his or
her will, or to act as personal representative or executor if so named by the will of the other,
whether such will was executed prior or subsequent to this Agreement.
24. SEPARABILITY OF PROVISIONS: If any term, condition, clause or
provision of this Agreement shall be determined or declared to be void or invalid in law or
otherwise, then only that term, condition, clause or provision shall be stricken from this
Agreement and in all other respects this Agreement shall continue in full force, effect and
operation.
25. GOVERNING LAW: All matters affecting the interpretation of this Agreement
and the rights of the Parties hereto shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania.
26. BREACH: In the event that either Party breaches any provision of this
10
Agreement, he or she shall be responsible for any and all costs incurred to enforce the
Agreement, including, but not limited to, court cost and counsel fees of the other Party. In the
event of breach, the other Party shall have the right, at his or her election; to sue for damages for
such breach or to seek such other and additional remedies as may be available to him or her.
27. ENTIRE UNDERSTANDING: This Agreement constitutes the entire
understanding between the Parties and there are no covenants, conditions, representations, or
agreements, oral or written, of any nature whatsoever, other than those herein contained.
28. AGREEMENT BINDING ON PARTIES AND HEIRS: It is understood and
agreed that not only the Parties hereto, but also their heirs, administrators, executors and assigns,
shall be bound by all the terms, conditions and clauses of this Agreement.
29. WAIVER OR MODIFICATION TO BE IN WRITING: No modification or
waiver of any of the terms hereof shall be valid unless in writing and signed by both Parties and no
waiver or any breach hereof or default hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of any subsequent
default of the same or similar nature.
30. NO WAIVER OF DEFAULT: This Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect unless and until terminated under and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The failure of
either Party to insist upon strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no
way affect the right of such Party hereafter to enforce the same, nor shall the waiver of any breach
of any provision hereof be construed as a waiver of any subsequent default of the same or similar
nature, nor shall the waiver of any breach of any provision hereof be construed as a waiver of strict
performance of any other obligations herein.
31. HEADINGS NOT A PART OF AGREEMENT: Any headings preceding the
text of the several paragraphs and subparagraphs hereof are inserted solely for convenience of
II
reference and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement nor shall they affect its meaning,
construction or effect.
